:lol:

 

He was at well organized pay&play day. All vehicles road legal, insured and mot’d.

He got bogged down and was being pulled out by some one using a KERR rope, the recovery eye ripped off the other vehicle and did the damage seen then carried on for a futher 100yards, 12 inches up and to the right, then that lump of metal would have been traveling through his head

really did make me cringe.

kinetic ropes are deadly ! was on a play and pay day when one ripped off the tow bar and inbeaded in the roof and rear pannel of a 110 . the scary thing was the guy was going to use a open top 90 but then it started raining so he took the 110 ! very lucky
